I reviewed this product as part of the review club - I might not have bought it otherwise because I think it's a bit pricy on the shelf, but after trying it, I think i"ll be buying it. THe best part of this product? Definitely the frrizz control. I have straight hair, but it gets really frizzy in the humiditiy/rain, and I found that using this product really help control that. I also really like the smell of it and the way that it makes my hair shine a little more. it feels like a luxury product, but isn't nearly as pricy as something at the salon. Overall, I highly recommend it! -

I love Clinique Happy perfume - it's especially great for the Spring/Summer, because it's really light, but I also wear it year-round. I always get compliments when I wear it, and I personally just love the scent (feminine without being too 'girly'). The price isn't bad (i.e., comparable to other 'big name' fragrances, and a little goes a long way (it lasts all day). I definitely recmomend! -

I received a coupon for this product as part of the review club, and I decided to use it on the Smooth & Dreamy 'bars' - the chocolcate/chocolate ones... and let me just say... Oh My Goodness, I have never in my life! These bars are so good (not your average ice cream bar, that's for sure!)! They are 3-levels of chocolately goodness... chocolcate ice cream (and it is indeed extremely SMOOTH tasting) with chocolate chips/chunks, and coated in dark chcolcate (hence the 3 layers) - too good to fully describe, but just take my word for it! If you dont' want to shell out the $7/box that you might otherwise pay, wait for a sale adn just buy them once - you won't regret it (and will probably be paying $7/box without even thinking about ever after!!)! -

LOVE IT!!
I have been using this makeup for about 10 days now, and I have to say that i truly love it. The first thing that i noticed on Day-1 of use was that it doesn't have much of an odour, which I really liked (I’m so used to unscrewing the cap on a moisturizer and immediately ‘smelling’ it… not always a bad smell, but I prefer none at all). So I appreciated the very subtle fragrance to begin with. Then, upon trying it, I found that it goes on very smoothly and gives really good coverage without buildup… so it ends up really ‘working’ as a makeup, but not leaving me with that ‘I’m wearing makeup’ feeling (really good combination). I have a lot of imperfections in my skin, and this makeup does as well or better than ANY other moisturizer that I’ve tried (in at least 15 years) – I’d definitely recommend it to a friend, even though the price is slightly higher than some other moisturizers… it’s definitely worth it!

OK, let me first start by saying that I'm 'recommending' this product (i.e., as a 'you betch') because there's no 'maybe' option - I'd have to say that I'd recommend this product for some reasons, but perhaps not some others. Let me explain:
I've been using the cream for about 10 days now, and basically I think my skin FEELS better (i.e., smoother, softer), but doesn't LOOK any different - I'm still seeing the same amount as cellulite as before I started using the product. In short, I'd say my skin is better 'in the dark', but that I'd still be self-concious in broad daylight in a bathing suit - does that make sense? The feel of my skin is actually really nice since using the cream (I've been focusing on my thighs and butt with this one, and the skin in that area feels better than anywhere else on my body!), and if there were no such things as mirrors, I'd probably swear that it had decreased my cellulite (because my skin feels so much smoother), but I honestly don't see a difference with my eyes. So bascially, I'd definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a nice skin 'smoother' or luxurious moisturizer, but tell them not to expect a miracle in terms of what might happen to the visual properties of cellulite.

I got the chance to try this product through the product review club, and I was really looking forward to trying it. I"m in my early 30s and I'm starting to see some pesky fine lines around my eyes and mouth - also I have always had kind of 'thin' lips, so I thought it might help plump them up or fill them out or something. I must say, I was a little disappointed in this product, compared to what I expected (my expectations might have been too high, but since it's called a 'plumper', I don't really think so). Although it does act as a really nice lip balm/gloss, I haven't really noticed any 'plumping' effects or any reduction in my fine lines. With this said, however, one of my friends who I shared the product with (I received samples for friends as well as myself) swears that she sees improvement after about a week of use (she's a little older than me and has deeper lines, so maybe that's why). It's pretty expensive at stores, but perhaps when it's on sale it might be worth trying for someone who wants to reduce fine lines/wrinkles - I just wouldn't expect miracles, because I don't think it would deliver. -

I received this as a reviewer for the Review Club, and I was really impressed with it. It's creamy and smooth going on, but doesn't leave you greasy afterwards. I like the smell too (soft and subtle). Since trying it I have looked on the store shelf to see how it's priced, and it's quite reasonable - I will definitely buy it once I run out of the one I have! I'd recommend this one to friends! -

I have really been liking this mascara. I personally have a difficult time finding mascara that doesn't frustrate me (even the most expensive ones aren't the most reliable, if you ask me... I've tried lots!) - I particularly hate clumping and caking. Well, this mascara isn't clumpy or cakey, even after 2 coats (which I find helps maximize the lenthening effect). It also really does lengthen, even without using an eyelash-curler first!! I would (and already have) recommended this to friends! For the price, you can't go wrong! -

I too received this product to test through ChickAdvisor, and all-in-all, I'm really glad I did! I don't know if I would have tried it otherwise (I've always been really happy with Olay shower creams), and I would have really been missing out on a great product! The number one benefit of this shower cream, in my opinion, is how soft/smooth and moisturized it leaves your skin. I noticed it right away, after only one use, and after several ues, my skin is still feeling much softer than it did before I started using this cream - I'll definitely keep buying it.
The only one thing I haven't LOVED about the Dove is the scent of it as it comes out of the bottle - it's very strong in the shower. However, once I've rinsed it off and dried after the shower, the scent on my skin is not overpowering, and not unpleasant - so I don't mind a little bit oof overpowering in the shower - it's worth it for the way my skin feels afterward.
I would (and will) definitely recommend this product to friends and/or anyone who suffers from drier skin (especially as the drier/colder months approach). I'm really looking forward to having soft skin this winter! Thanks Dove, for the great product!

I didn't love this flavour - of the 3 that I tried (the cheesecake, along with the Banana Cream Pie and the Chocolate Velvet), this was my least favourite. I think I was expecting something more 'cheese-cakey'... that 'salty sweet'/richness of true cheesecake was definitely missing. The chocolate flavour is OK if you're just looking for chocolate, but I actually found the various flavours in this ice cream to kind of compete with one another - if you're looking for chocolate, go with the chocolate velvet one! If you're looking for cheesecake, I think you'll be happier with the real thing. -
